TREKKING TIPS TO
MT. RINJANI VOLCANO
Policies:
-
We here
local people from Sembalun Lawang village and senaru
village. The best guides and porters are local
because they know very well about environment,
culture and other aspects.
-
We
realized that our staffs (guides and porters) not
only work for us, but part of the company, so that
we give only appropriate load weight for each porter
and provide them proper clothes and jacket to adjust
the cold temperature and suitable shelter while
working.
-
In long
term, we’re trying to provide our guides and porters
with life insurance that could be also as life
saving.
-
All our
porters oblige to bring all rubbish out, and we
expect the same from our clients.

We try to
minimize using wood to cook.

Dig hole
for toilet tent minimum 150 m from water resources.

Serve
local food and drink in combination on our menu.
You have to knows about culture , and we recommended
our client do it .
-
Learn
some basic words and phrases because this is the
most effective and fastest way to get closer to
local people. Check out our language section to
learn simple and basic Indonesian.
-
Ask
permission before you take picture or video
-
Tell
local people that you think their village, children,
dress, culture, or surrounding environments are
beautiful or spectacular. This will inspire them to
be proud of their culture and to protect the quality
of their surrounding environment, hopefully
providing an incentive to resist resource
exploitation and westernization or lifestyle, and is
preserving diversity
-
Never
give souvenirs or gifts (no matter how small its is)
directly to children as this creating expectation
and dependence that turns into disappointment when
future travelers do not do the same. Alternatively,
give them to their parents or teachers, local
authorities or who you think can best distribute
these items, or ask us that we can give to
orphanage.
-
Try to
buy locally produced merchandise
-
Don’t
come into price negotiation if you’re not seriously
intended to buy. Pay a fair price for the goods and
services you buy, don’t go too far on bargaining.
Our guides will help to inform you about reasonable
price. We don’t get commission from shops we bring
you or recommend to you to make sure you’re into
fair trade.

Support
local community or environmental projects-rather
than giving money to beggars.
Wildlife :

Never

towards any wild or domestic animals.

Some
deceases and parasites are directly transferable
from animals to human, and vice versa, especially to
primates. If you are visiting a primate colony, wild
or captive, you should be in top health with no
chest ailments etc.

Never
feed the local wildlife. This can cause many serious
problems for the animals and then create dependent

starvation when the tourist season ends.

the extent of straining dishwashing water to remove
food particles to avoid animals take them.
